The order Amphipoda contains organisms with a fairly wide variety of feeding habits. Most but not all amphipods live in water (both fresh and saltwater.) Some amphipods are indeed considered omnivores, but most are detritivores, meaning they eat pieces of organic matter that is decomposing (like an earthworm does.) Since detritivores are not particular about whether their food has a plant or animal origin I suppose you could say that most amphipods are omnivores, but it would be more correct to call them detritivores.
